Congregants mourn Alabama pastor who drowned in Arkansas while duck hunting

MILLPORT, Ala. -- People who knew the 25-year-old pastor Matthew T. Miller, who drowned Saturday in a boating accident while hunting with his father and six others on the White River in Arkansas, are remembering Miller for his charisma and caring, according to a Tuscaloosa News report today.

"He was one of those people who made those around him better," the Rev. Robert Mercer, who was Miller's youth minister while the young man attended Hoover High School, told the Tuscaloosa News.

Mercer, who attended the University of Alabama, was an associate pastor of Helena United Methodist Church.
